George, who always likes to menation that he was a Korean War Veteran when things fluster him, biggest problem in mid-life seems to be finding the remote control to the TV set, but also seems to be a pretty down-to-earth guy who has good horse sense when it comes to relationships, as he advised Drew in the episode "Girlfriend, Interrupted" in Season 9 to pursue a romantic relationship with Kellie Newmark, as he was on the rebound from a broken relationship with New Orleans native Lily Crawford who broke up with him after the two called off their wedding there in the Big Easy.

In "How Beulah Gets Her Groove Back ", he and Beulah, Drew's mom, almost break up as, after talking with Mimi, admits that George was nevar a very good lover, as he admits such as he lament "the female orgasm is a myth...like the Unicorn~" as he also says "I spent three years in Korea torching commies out of caves... I raised two boys... I worked 40 years at a job I hated... I'm tired!! I just wanna lay there and get mine!", as he reluctantly listened to Drew and Steve's advice on how to satisfy their mom in the sack.

Drew was shocked to learn in the episode "Sealed in a Kiss" that his dad, who had died from from an accident where he had fallen from a ladder, didn't mention him at all in his diary, as he gave him a military style funeral.
